I am following the mini for the cancelled legacy, called legacy war.  pretty good so far.

The fate of the jedi novels on the other hand are hit and miss.  Mostly crap.

Waiting to see Crimson Empire 3 if its good or not since it was uncanceled by the head of dark horse who somehow got the Lucas folks on board.


Something to do with it will sell lots of copies and make a ton of money probably,lol.

I think its more like they owed the fans a wrap up of the story, but after dark empire III which became empires end was a piece of crap then i am not so sure its a great idea.

 

You could say fans of Kotor deserved a real third game and not an MMO spinoff set centuries later that does not tell the end of the first 2 games, but hey Lucasharts does not care and nor do bioware.

 

Lucas could have also have set the animated series in original trilogy territory or in an era not overdone like the prequels. You know like actually have the characters from the original films but then he would have to either pay the actors major cash for voice over work or recast the roles.

The only person i know who would do it justice is Hamill though i don't think he would want to revisit the role, after all he turned down the jedi radio play after doing star wars and empire.

What has not been done or tapped is Indiana Jones animated, and if they cannot do it well it best to stay that way, the dark horse comics were okay and the marvel ones a mixed bag but some really good.  Much better and more indiana jones like than Crystal Numbskull were both publishers comics.
